"We now know that Boelter was a Trump voter who had a hit list with other Minnesota Democrats, including Rep. Omar and Keith Ellison. He was not a Democrat or leftist, despite what Elon Musk and right-wing propagandists are spreading on social media."

@tend2wobble one of these people is on Mt Rushmore for a reason.

#Israel, w/5 days of missile strikes, has done considerable damage to #Iran & believes it can now deal a permanent blow to Tehran’s #nuclear program—particularly if it gets a little more help from the #US.
But deepening American involvement, perhaps by providing the Israelis with bunker-busting #bombs to penetrate Iranian nuclear sites built deep underground or offering other direct #USmilitary support, comes w/ enormous political risk for #Trump. [& actual risk for US #ServiceMembers.]
England will expand free school meals to 500,000 more children. By 2026, all children in households receiving Universal Credit will be eligible for free school meals in England. The policy will cover an additional 500,000 students and is projected to lift 100,000 children out of poverty while saving families £490 per child each year. Worth every penny.

But if that is the case, then ICE has no legal protection from any harm, making the premise to use the #NationalGuard nonsense.

JUST IN: Congressman Massie introduces the Iran War Powers Resolution to prohibit US involvement in the Israel-Iran war.
BREAKING: NYC mayoral candidate and comptroller Brad Lander arrested by ICE in a courthouse in New York City.
Putin Humiliates Trump With Massive Strike That Kills an American. We need a leader as president, not a failed businessman, a con artist, a billionaire game show host, or a felon!
